29.17.9 3D Floating Bar Graph

3D-Floating-Bar

Data Requirements

• Worksheet:

• Select at least one Z column (or a range from at least one Z column). If the Z column has associated XY columns, then the XY columns are used; otherwise, the worksheet's default XY values are used.

or

• A block of worksheet cells (virtual matrix)

• Matrix: A matrix of Z values, at least with one object..

Creating the Graph

Activate the matrixsheet or select required data from worksheet.

From the menu, choose Plot > 3D: 3D Floating Bar.

Template

• GL3DFLOATCOL.OTPU

(Installed to the Origin program folder).

Notes

• For XYZ data, the two Z values at same X and Y coordinates will be used as start and end of the bar; for matrix data, two objects in current matrixsheet will be used as start and end of the bar. If the first Z value is larger than the second one, the bar height will be Z1-Z2 and the direction is upward; If the first Z value is smaller than the second one, the bar height will be Z2-Z1 and the direction is downward.
• The associated X and Y values mapped in the matrix/worksheet determine the XY locations of each floating column.
